Compassion Demands Engagement | January 10, 2015
When we resist change, it’s called suffering. But when we can completely
let go and not struggle against it, when we can embrace the
groundlessness of our situation and relax into its dynamic quality,
that’s called enlightenment, or awakening to our true nature, to our
fundamental goodness.
